What is said to have been a manufacturer's error on Jordan Brand's end, this version of the Air Jordan 9 will not be the official release although we can imply that some sneaker goers would've preferred to see the blackened bottom that matches the shoe's black durabuck and leather construction. Whatever the case may be, Jordan Brand has big plans for the Air Jordan 9 heading into the New Year as we've already been introduced to several new models over the past few weeks including the "Calvin Bailey" version.

Which "Photo Blue" model would rather see release? Perhaps this epic look of the sneaker will help reassure any doubts that you may have surrounding this upcoming release. Stay tuned to Sneaker Files for an announcement on a release date. Head over to KickSole to pre-order your pair early today.
